Vulture Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Very nice. Is that an airborne 6 pounder? Alex As Rob says, it's a replica, quite a good looking one IMHO as well Nice guys crewing it as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpu121265 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I understand it had a fuel problem that was resolved on the day Was 'almost' resolved on the day, has now been completely resolved removing the need for an assistant perched on the wing permanently pouring fuel in to the carb......

Alex van de Wetering Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 take another look Lex ,.......................home made job ! Rob.................rnixartillery. As Rob says, it's a replica, quite a good looking one IMHO as well :-) Nice guys crewing it as well :-) Ah, I presumed it was home made, but didn't want to ask if it was...fearing for retaliation at Ginkel Heath in September:D Seems like a nice job indeed. I always miss these airborne 6pdr's at the Arnhem remembrance....and Morris 17pdr combo's for that matter. Anyway, going off subject. Nice pics, seems like a really nice event....always good to see a vehicle and aircraft combo. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Nice pictures, thanks for sharing. Couldn't make it this year but wondered how the layout was going to differ and I can now see how it did. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
